In reply to DINA. I forgot to mention that I am using size 15 knitting needles, 10.00 mm. Is it possible to use this size needles to make a that baby's blanket?

This looks like a nice baby’s blanket. However, I only want to use one color through out for my grandson’s blanket. DO you have any patterns for that?

In reply to Patricia Allen. Yes, whenever the gauge lists a stitch pattern that is the one to use to test for gauge. If a stitch pattern is not listed then you can assume you should make your gauge swatch using stockinette.

I am eager to knit this blanket, however, I am confused about gauge: 7 sts and 14 rows = 4″ [10 cm] in garter st (knit every row).
Are you saying that 7 stitches should be equivalent to 4 inches? I always test gauge using stockinette stitch and this could b3 interpreted to use garter stitch for testing. I am concerned because I recently knitted a blanket, followed instructions BUT didn’t test gauge. It ended up monstrous in size. I never tested gauge for blankets before but this was the first time I used a large needle (#10]so it made a huge difference. Will you kindly clear this upfront me? Thanks in advance.

I’m starting with the required tail length, but when I get to about stitch 27 I’m running out of tail?

In reply to Joann Gay. Yes, you can use just one color. You will still end up with a beautiful baby blanket that won't curl up on the edges.
